VIDEO: Thumbs up for Jessy Nelson!
Troy Lee Designs-Lucas Oil-Honda rider Jessy Nelson is one of the rising stars in the US. This 18-year-old rookie is a bit of an outsider in the AMA pro ranks. Or should we say an outside thumb. After all, Jessy lost his left thumb in a crash! Yet this guy is still working hard on his way to the top. Nelson drives with a special prosthetic thumb and is more than capable of getting by with just one thumb. To think that most people often have difficulty holding the steering wheel properly with two thumbs!
